Abstract

Mechanism of hydrogen pre-annealing on the growth of gallium nitride (GaN) on sapphire using metallorganic vapor phase epitaxy was investigated. Several groups reported the influence of the injection at a high temperature before the deposition of a low-temperature buffer layer. It was observed that an atomic step was formed by high-temperature annealing in air.
